Time passes minute by minute.

Most of the day flies by in a blink of an eye.

The sky was gradually getting darker.

Ying Yu and Sophie were still playing in Xianyang City.

After spending most of the day playing, Sophie was even more shocked and excited.

Whether it was newspapers that could quickly convey news, delicious and tender tofu, or various novel gadgets in Xianyang City, Sophie was full of praise, endless aftertaste, and lingering over it.

These things were unheard of and unseen to Sophie, who had lived in Rome since she was a child.

Moreover, through conversations with some people in Xianyang City, Sophie learned that almost all the novelties and delicious food in Xianyang City are related to Ying Yu.

Although the sky is getting darker at this moment, the lights in Xianyang City are still brightly lit, the streets are still busy with traffic, and the excitement has not diminished at all.

From this point of view, the security of Xianyang City is also very reassuring, which is enough to prove that under Ying Yu's management, Xianyang City has still become a very prosperous city, where the people are healthy and happy.

In Sophie's eyes, Xianyang City like this is simply a paradise on earth.

But what made Sophie feel incredible the most was the reaction of the people in Xianyang City after seeing Ying Yu.

There are many people in Xianyang City who know Ying Yu. After seeing Ying Yu, they all greeted him with smiles, took the initiative to talk to Ying Yu, and even took the initiative to bring food or fresh toys to Ying Yu.

It feels like a friend you haven't seen for a long time.

You must know that Ying Yu's identity is the prince of the Qin Dynasty and the future emperor. The people are not afraid after seeing him, which makes Sophie feel very incredible.

Seeing the admiration and awe in the eyes of the common people, Sophie felt that her world view was greatly shocked. She never expected that a king could be like this and be so approachable.

Compared to those nobles in Rome and Ying Yu, there is simply a world of difference.

After all, the people in Rome lived a hard life, but the nobles were arrogant and extravagant. Whenever nobles appeared on the streets, the people would avoid them.

Not only that, under the corrupt and backward rule of the Roman aristocrats, the capital of Rome and even Rome as a whole gradually declined, and the original glory of Rome no longer existed.

In Sophie's view, if the rulers of Rome had one ten thousandth of Ying Yu's talent, and if they had one ten thousandth of Ying Yu's virtues and virtues, Rome, once the most powerful country in the Western Regions, would not be where it is now.

kind of situation.

Thinking of this, Sophie couldn't help but feel a little sad, and she couldn't help but sigh slightly.

"Okay, why are you sighing?"

Ying Yu asked with some confusion.

"nothing."

"Just seeing such a prosperous scene in Xianyang City, I can't help but think of the capital city of Rome. Compared with Xianyang City, the capital city of Rome is really too backward."

"Although I have married His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Rome is my hometown after all, and it is inevitable that I feel a little emotional."

Sophie shook her head, indicating that she was fine and there was no need for Ying Yu to worry.

"Although Rome is now in decline and has lost its original splendor, I believe that everything in Rome will get better soon."

"With the help of Da Qin, Rome will soon prosper."

Sophie's words made Ying Yu smile lightly, looked in the direction of Roma, and said slowly.

As soon as Ying Yu said these words, Sophie was stunned for a moment, and then she came to her senses.

As the daughter of Scipio and a political official in Rome, Sophie could naturally understand the meaning of Ying Yu's words.

Although Rome is now married to Great Qin, Sophie understands in her heart that Great Qin's goal is not only the Eastern Continent, but also the Western Regions and even the entire world.

Sophie also understood that letting Qin dominate the world and unify the world was not only Ying Zheng's goal, but also Ying Yu's goal.

If Qin wanted to achieve this goal, Rome would naturally not be able to escape.

But for Sophie today, although Rome is her hometown, she does not want to see Rome decline.

According to the current development trend, with Rome's current economic and military strength, Rome will disappear in the long river of history sooner or later.

Moreover, as Sophie is now Ying Yu's concubine, she has already completely regarded herself as a Daqin person, and she has long since given up her mind about the future of Rome.

And in Sophie's view, only by relying on the Qin Dynasty can the people of Rome live a good life and Rome can prosper one day.

"It's getting late."

"Sophie, do you want to go back to the palace or stay here in Xianyang City?

As the passing moonlight fell on Xianyang City, Ying Yu looked at Sophie and asked.

"It's rare to come out once. Why don't we go back tonight? How about staying here in Xianyang City?"

Sophie thought for a while and asked expectantly.

"That's good. I'll take you out of the city tomorrow to visit nearby counties."

Hearing this, Ying Yu nodded slightly, and then the two of them wandered around for a while before finding an inn to stay at.

...

The next morning.

The red sun, emitting red light, hangs high in the sky.

At this time, Ying Yu had already driven a steam car and left Xianyang City with Sophie.

The warm sunshine shone on the body, making people feel very comfortable. Ying Yu drove the steam car all the way towards the south of Xianyang City.

The emergence of steam automobiles has greatly changed the way people travel and how fast they travel.

In just over an hour, Ying Yu took Sophie to a village in the south of Xianyang City.

This village is surrounded by mountains on three sides and used to be very backward and poor.

However, due to the development of Xianyang City, Ying Yu's poverty alleviation policy, and a railway passing through the village, the village is now much more prosperous, and the villagers can live without worries about food and clothing.

"Your Highness, why not just have some fun in front and then go back."

Before coming to this village, Sophie looked at the flowers blooming everywhere in the village and felt very happy.

Although he didn't want to go back, he knew that Ying Yu still had a lot of things to do, and it was rare to be able to take the time to hang out with her.

"good."

Ying Yu nodded, parked the steam car at the entrance of the village, and the two walked into the village.

However, the two of them had just walked not far when they heard faint crying.

Following the sound of crying, Ying Yu soon saw the corpses of dozens of sheep placed in an open space. Next to them, there were several old farmers who were constantly wiping the tears that overflowed from the corners of their eyes.

"Old man, what happened?"
